New stuff
So the year started here nearby Helsinki as well as anywhere else. I've been quite busy at work, so I haven't really had time to post. Now I'm sort of finished and tomorrow is the big meeting where I find out what I'm gonna do next. Exciting.
We were looking at appartments one day and found the perfect place to live. Right in the middle of Helsinki close to everything. A two-room flat with a sauna. I'm not going to tell you how dreadfully expensive it would be. But the thing is this company has just refurbished this old headquaters of a company into appartments. And they are all rental appartments. All new you see. And we so want one. Most likely we won't live there for that long with all the talk about moving to the states and all, but now is the perfect time. Everyday we check our mail hoping for news. The buildings will be ready in March so there's still time until our move. That is if we get an appartment there. The place would be perfect for dance game parties with sauna and all the bars close by. Wish us luck!
Bars. We went out last weekend. Jaakko had just sent his thesis to his instructor and he felt like partying. Since I wasn't against it, we decided to go. We started drinking at our flat and played some PS2 (my graduation present from Jaakko). Sly Raccoon and then Singstar. We're getting pretty good at the singing. I hope our neighbors think so too. Then we were off. Just the two of us. Jaakko tried calling some friends, but it seemed they were just spending the night in. We went to one bar to dance and then to another one. One of Jaakko's friends called us there. It was OK I presume. But the thing is, not really that great. So while talking about a center appartment and how easy it will be to go to bars, at the same time Jaakko (yes, he really said so) and I are actually not into clubbing that much. Sad really. We had more fun competing with each other on the singing game at home than at the bar drinking.
Oh, yes. I did make a new year's resolution. To save money. I spend way too much. I think I might be able to set aside like 700 euro a month if I really tried. So I'm gonna try.
On another note, I am now an Esprit Club platinum member. Guess where I get all my clothes from? ;)
Back to work...

Platinum member! :D Cool.
The appartment sounds great. Here's hoping with you.
And here's one person heading home after too much time on the internet after work.
Greetings to Jaakko from me!
Apartment in the middle of the city with 2 rooms and a small sauna.. whoah, I mean we SO differ from opinions here :)
I just couldn't take it anymore, the neighbors, traffic, lack of privacy and everything else included in living in a flat (mostly annoying neighbors now that I think on it). But since it sounds like you're OK with all those, good luck on getting the place! ;)
And I have no clue on what an Esprit Club Platinum is. Anything to do with Lotus Esprit? ;D
Have a great day at work!
Esprit has to do with the clothes that your sisters wear. ;) Head to toe.
And yes, I love the business of the center. For now.
Somebody else got that Platinum card in the post during Christmas... Quess who?:-)
Sounds like an appartment I could very easily visit.
3rd day back in work... AAAARRRGGGHH!!!!
not much new stuff anymore, 2 weeks outdated sis.. ;D
"We want update! We want update!" :D
OK so I'm slightly bored/lazy at work. You still keeping up with the fitness routine?
